How You Can Lose Weight Through Intermittent Fasting.

Intermittent fasting is an eating pattern that involves periods of food restriction (fasting) followed by normal eating. This pattern of eating could help you lose weight, reduce your risk of disease and increase your lifespan.

Some researchers even claim that its beneficial effects on metabolism make it a healthier way to lose weight than standard calorie restriction. Intermittent fasting is a simple, effective approach to fat loss that is relatively easy to stick to.

Studies have shown that when it comes to weight loss, intermittent fasting can be just as effective as traditional calorie restriction, if not more.

In fact, a 2014 review found that intermittent fasting could help people lose an impressive 3–8% of their body weight in 3–24 weeks.

Moreover, a recent review concluded that in overweight and obese people, intermittent fasting may be a better approach to weight loss than very-low-calorie diets.

Interestingly, this approach to eating may also benefit your metabolism and metabolic health.

There are a few different ways to try intermittent fasting. Some people follow the 5:2 diet, which involves fasting for two days a week. Others practice alternate-day fasting or the 16/8 method.
